answer these 10 questions and i'll tell you what kind of lover you are: a choose-your-own-adventure heartbreak in the shape of a quiz
a short story that's sort of like if a prose poem and a buzzfeed quiz had a baby and they all fucking hated you.
it looks better full screen.
(edited to add: wow i never expected this game to reach so many people - as of writing this, it's been viewed over 100k times! :o ! it was important to me from the start that the game be free and i'll never charge for it, but i have set up a tip jar at https://ko-fi.com/frannymestrich if you enjoyed it and want to support my writing. a huge thank you to everyone who's played, commented, shared with a friend, and/or rated. xoxo)

Honestly I wasn't expecting something like that going into it but its beautiful. Something so simple, yet it deffo pulled on the heartstrings!
Okay really accurate 10/10. I didn't expect it to be sad tho :<
10/10 this honestly made me cry
devastating and accurate!
But also 5/5 stars given because I only love things that make me cry.
Why would you do this to me? You made me sad about relationship I never had with a nameless character! Also this is sadly accurate…once again why would you do this? And I still want my cute coffee shop date to come true.
It's very acurrate, very sad too but in an expected manner. Dunno how to feel but I really liked the game.
DAMN I HATE IT, ITS SO ACURRATED :C 10/10 btw

Sweet, but Aloof, kinida nailed me... This game was too good for how short it was!

thanks! i’m ending my life now!!! 😁
i was not expecting that. i thought it was just a normal quiz game
this hurt gang (i love this
Owch that hurt 😔..
I'm crying
yeowch
ow
this is so beautiful
Here I thought I was getting a nice little fun quiz but, it was definitely heartbreaking and beautiful. Thank you!
This hurt, but I really loved it, thanks for creating this game!
YOU GOT: Sweet, But Aloof.
You're thoughtful. You write poetry for your partner, and buy them gifts when the heat gets to be too much. But your self-consciousness can get in the way sometimes; you're too embarrassed to share your poetry, and you go a long time without saying "I love you" out of fear that they won't say it back. Learn to open up. Learn to be vulnerable with another person. Otherwise, how will you ever really love them?
Otherwise, you might end up standing side by side beneath the fireworks on the fourth of July, and they'll look at your face, beautiful in the red and blue light, and they'll wonder if you really love them. And they'll think back to that night, over and over again, the way your face looked, and they'll think maybe you never did. And they'll cling to every gift you ever gave them, desperate for proof that you cared. And they may realize that these problems are just as much theirs, that it takes two to play this game, but god couldn't you just have loved them better? What if you each could have been enough for the other? It would've been so nice to be happy together.
Wow, this hit a bit too close to home and my past relationship, I loved it though!
You have a beautiful way with words. Thank you for making this game.
Not even joking this made me sob.
This is so beautifully written and I don't want you ever to stop.
Well that was a punch in the guts. Incredible. Just incredible.
I think I'm gonna cry... thank you for the beautifully tragic story ❤️
spoilers below:
and to any other players reading this: yes, the only answer is sweet but aloof. I tested it haha
damn, i got sweet but aloof. such a great game <3 was not expecting that but i loved it
[ and you go a long time without saying "I love you" out of fear that they won't say it back ]
god that feels true
I've played this game twice now, and I'll probably do it again in a couple months. I'll choose the same answers and get 'Sweet, But Aloof' again. Hurts to read because I know it's true, and I feel as though I've lived this one before but I love this game. Thank you for making this! 10000/10
I don't think you have to worry about making the same choice, this is a linear story, sweet but aloof was the type of lover the MC was.
